Ken,
Thank you very much for the info regarding the TV powermate. I am only just setting this system up and my first feelings were "Thank God I can achieve focus" and then "The Moon looks big"
As Matt says if the distance is about 200mm then an 8mm eyepiece would yield about x259 (900x2.3 divided by 8) which would be ideal for this size and class of telescope, I could not ask for more really.
I like the idea of the T ring adaptor for the PMate, unfortunately they are not listed on Bintel's website so I shall give them a call tomorrow. Anything that provides a more substantial means of attaching such expensive equipment is to be welcomed.
I will post the results when I have fitted the T ring adaptor as there is not a lot of information out there as to what will work and what will almost work.
